Name: ______________________________________________ Period: ___________ DUE DATE: ________________________ Second Term Project Bacteria or Virus - Most Wanted Poster A pathogen is anything that causes a disease. Most pathogens fall into one of two categories: Viruses or Bacteria. In this project, you will select a pathogen to research further. Maybe you want to know more about a pathogen that has made you or a family member sick at sometime in your life. As with the last project, you will have two options for this project. Task: Students will research a bacterial or viral infection and create a poster displaying information about the bacteria or virus. A list of acceptable pathogens will be provided from which students can choose. Two days of computer time will be provided for research. Oak tag will be provided for the poster. Criteria: Description: 1. Your poster should be on the piece of oak tag provided. ***Take care of this because you will NOT receive another one*** 2. Your poster should be colorful and creative. 3. Your poster should be organized and free from errors. 4. Your poster should include your name and period on the front. Content requirements (what should you include): 1. Poster should include a “Photo” of your bacteria or virus (this can be a microscopic picture or a diagram) 2. Name of the bacteria or virus and the disease it causes. 3. Description of your bacteria or virus (what it looks like) 4. Organism’s mode of operation (how it attacks and spread) 5. Most common preyed upon victim (adults, kids, males, females, etc.) 6. Injury done to its victims (symptoms of the disease) 7. Is it armed and dangerous? (rate the degree of damage caused) 8. Most effective weapon against the bacteria or virus (vaccines, treatments, cures? Etc.) The project will be worth 50 points. Grades will be determined as follows: 1. Content (does your poster contain all 8 requirements plus references)………...…………………………………….………........10 pts. 2. Quality of research (is your information detailed and accurate?)……10 pts. 3. References (at least 2 properly cited)…………………………………5 pts. 4. Appearance (appropriate size, poster board, neat, colorful?)…………5 pts. 5. Mechanics (is it free of spelling/grammar errors?
